Synopsis

Best known as a writer of crime fiction notably the 12 volume Charlie Resnick series and as the mainstay, for two decades, of Slow Dancer Press, John Harvey s own poetry has perhaps stayed too long below the radar.

This, his first collection in sixteen years, brings together the best of his two earlier books, Ghosts of a Chance and Bluer Than This, along with a number of new poems which show a greater depth and maturity and variety of form, further fusing together the intimate and personal with a passionate understanding of music and painting and the ways in which they can affect and illuminate our lives.
